Rebirth in America: Great Slave Owner: Chapter 91 back to new orleans
PS: Chapters 89 and 90 are in the second volume...
"We must build more military factories, not to mention that all weapons must be brought by themselves, at least there must be a place for maintenance!"
"We must build more pharmaceutical factories. Isn't the lesson quinine taught us not bad enough?"
"We need to build more military academies. If we didn't have such excellent generals as General Li and General Stone Wall this time, we would have been defeated by those Yang Kee men long ago!"
"I can't grow so much cotton anymore. I have to set aside a part of the land to grow food. This time I can't eat the pain of not being able to buy food!"
"We need to strengthen our ties with countries such as Britain and France. If there is no French action this time, we will definitely be dragged down by the north!"
"..."
Just as the Congress was quarreling, Tangning, Brian and other manor owners returned to New Orleans after a long absence. To be honest, if General Butler of the Commonwealth was a mayor, it would be pretty good, because New Orleans at the moment. Although it was different from when Tangning left, it was absolutely impossible to tell that she had experienced war a few months ago.
As soon as he arrived at the door of the house, the old housekeeper Rob saluted excitedly with tears in his eyes: "Master, you are finally back!"
"It's been a lot of hard work for you these past few years!" Tangning patted Rob's shoulder and said.
"This is what I should do! The war is finally over!"
"Yes, the war is finally over!" Tangning said with emotion.
It can be seen that the entire manor has been thoroughly cleaned in the past few days, and everything is clean. So Tangning threw herself on the sofa and let out a long sigh of relief, "It's better to be at home!"
Then he instructed Rob: "Go and send a telegram to Mrs. Murphy and ask Agubin to bring back a hundred black slaves. It's time to sort out the land at home!"
Unexpectedly, Rob took a step closer and whispered: "Master, Mrs. Murphy came back yesterday!"
"Ah?! She came back so early!" Tangning said in surprise.
So Tangning went to Nicole's manor after having breakfast the next day, "I didn't expect you to be back so early!"
"Actually, I'm supposed to be on the same boat as you, but I'm closer!" Tangning explained.
"That's right!" Tangning agreed, then asked, "Will you return to Brazil?"
Nicole nodded and replied, "Of course, after all, who knows if there will be another war, and I have already developed it in Brazil, and it would be a pity to sell it, so I will have to run both ways in the future!"
"Actually, it's the same with me. In the future, I'll have to run between New Orleans and New York!" Tangning echoed, and then started talking about business.
What Tangning didn't expect was that Nicole shook her head and replied, "Uh, Tony, you might be disappointed, because I don't have any extra slaves anymore!"
Tangning couldn't help but exclaimed, "What?! You don't have any black slaves there anymore? How is this possible? Didn't you say before that you couldn't use so many black slaves?"
"It was true that it couldn't be sold before, but Mr. Brian had already ordered them by telegram before you. You know how much demand he has!" Nicole replied helplessly.
Tangning muttered in frustration, "This guy's speed is really fast!"
"It's okay, you don't make money by growing cotton anyway!" Nicole comforted.
Tangning retorted, "Then don't forget your duty. I don't have any black slaves and I don't open a plantation. How could I be embarrassed to call myself a big slave owner again!"
"Oh? That's how you introduced yourself in New York and London?" Nicole asked in surprise.
Tangning shook her head and replied, "Of course it's impossible, but they all see me that way! And even if I explain repeatedly, no one will believe me. At most, they only believe me on the surface! The manor owner!"
Then he changed the subject and asked, "By the way, will you still grow cotton in the future?"
Nicole shook her head and replied: "Only one third of the crops, I plan to grow coffee for the rest. In fact, Brazil is more suitable for coffee, and cotton is not as good as New Orleans! And just like I told you last time. In the past few years we fought wars, and those British businessmen went to India and Egypt to collect cotton. Even if we planted cotton again, I guess it would not be so easy to sell!"
"If you can think so, I wanted to remind you!" Tangning breathed a sigh of relief.
While the two were chatting, Nicole's bodyguard Emma suddenly came in to report: "Master, Mr. Jonathan is here!"
Tangning and Nicole looked at each other, almost in unison, "What?! Jonathan is still alive?"
As soon as the two arrived in the living room, Jonathan joked: "Tony, I went to your house just now, but you weren't there, I guessed that you went to Nicole's place!"
Tangning ignored Jonathan's jokes and looked at him up and down, "It seems that you have suffered a lot. This person is dark and thin, but it's good to be alive!"
Hearing Tangning say this, Jonathan also sighed, "Yes, living is the most important thing. I have seen too many deaths over the years, whether it's enemies or comrades!"
"Okay, don't think about it, it's all over!" Tangning patted Jonathan on the shoulder and comforted.
Jonathan nodded in agreement: "Well, it's all over." Then he said: "So I'm not here to buy black slaves from you, so that I can rebuild my cotton fields!"
This time, without waiting for Nicole to speak, Tangning answered first, "You're too late, the black slaves that Nicole operated on were all wrapped up by Brian, and I didn't even get it! Let's wait for the slave traders to come over , buy it from them!"
"How long will it take to wait~www.mtlnovel.com~ I'm afraid it will delay the cotton season!" Jonathan said worriedly.
"Don't worry, they must be more anxious than us now!" Tangning comforted.
Then he changed the topic and said, "By the way, did you encounter anything interesting in the army this time?"
Hearing Tangning asking about this topic, Jonathan's message box was immediately opened, and he said cheerfully, "Tony, it's really a big regret in your life that you didn't join the army, the experience there is absolutely unimaginable if you didn't go there. of!"
Speaking of which, he seemed to have thought of something, and added: "However, some parts of your novel are also very accurate, such as Bai Ruide's reselling of military supplies and embezzlement and embezzlement of military funds. Some people really do this, and there are more than one!"
Tangning thought to herself, "The front is tight, the rear is tight" when has this kind of thing happened? During the defense of Leningrad, supplies were so scarce, so there were still people who hid a lot of food and sold it secretly...
